For anyone who doesn't recognize the racism in this (or any) statement, just substitute "white".


Can you imagine the outrage if Trump encouraged WHITE people to get out the vote for him?


Obama and now Hillary are unbelievable in the racial rhetoric they spew.

Of course, that is not what he said. The Fox story (the quoted part in the OP) has it right but the attention grabbing link line is well, Fox. He said if they don't vote he would be insulted, not if they don't vote for Clinton. Keep in mind, too, his speech was to the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation. Who cares, anyway? What should worry the Rs is the forcefulness and persuasiveness of his speech. He's good. And he is going to be out there working crowds for Hillary for the next couple months.

Think about who said they wanted the POTUS to be 1 term. Think about which party has stopped all action in the House and Senate. When you do not remember who created the mess of 2007- 08 you deserve what you get as a candidate.

Nutty Don and the GOP perfect together do nothing and place blame on those with a better vision.

Nutty Don the RINO is just pandering to those who do not know the history of America. Have not known that this line of attack has been tried before. Thats all he has till someone stands up to him and he slinks away with his tail between his legs like in Flint .

Obama is worried about his legacy. If Trump wins the presidency, Obama's "accomplishments" like the disasterous ACA, proliferation of sanctuary cities, Iran nuclear deal (snicker),TPP, etc. will likely be overturned or at least severely changed. I doubt Barack gives a damn about Hillary. In fact, there is lots of evidence to the contrary.

There's a huge flaw in your post. Obama didn't just urge BLACK people to get out to vote for Hillary. He was encouraging all voters who wanted to thank him for the job he's done for the past 7+ years to vote. Period. Do you think he got elected twice with just the black vote, think again. He's always been a president who happened to be black not just a black president, but I'm sure you won't understand that statement because you cant look past his color. He never once mentioned Hillary in the speech.

He sounded like a dictator. But he's obviously gone too far just like Brexit. It didn't work out as he was perceived as lecturing them. I don't think it will work this time either. It smells of desperation. No more hope and change.

Too many of them are leaving the reservation.

Got to make it personal, cause emotion trumps logic every time.

I thought there was a lot of illegal votes for Obama.

You're delusional if you really believe that.
